What are the keys?


It is Vaccinium exaristatum Kurz

Myself and Dr. M. SANJAPPA (Former Director of BSI) reported from India as New record, from Gwaltabi of Manipur in 2007 in BNHS, but I collected it in March 2003.
It is common locality wise, not available everywhere of its natural habitat

V. exaristatum has two colour variants, white and pinkish purple and also in between them.

It is also collected from Mizoram and Nagaland
